4 Warning Read and follow these warnings and the instructions that follow. Failure to do so could result in serious property damage and/or serious bodily injury. BEFORE operating this equipment, thoroughly read this set of instructions, make sure you understand them, and only then follow the step-by-step directions. FAILURE TO READ AND FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS could result in failure of the equipment. Failure of the equipment while the telescoping section is raised can include a sudden and rapid lowering of the telescoping section possibly resulting in serious property damage and/or serious bodily injury. Use and maintenance of the DrillRite Overhead Concrete Drill Press shall be limited to authorized, competent personnel who are trained in the proper techniques for its safe operation and maintenance and who are familiar with the various hazards of overhead drilling into concrete. Competent person means one who is capable of identifying existing and predictable hazards in the surroundings or working conditions which are unsanitary, hazardous, or dangerous to employees, and who has authorization to take prompt corrective measures to eliminate them. [29 CFR (f)] DO NOT ATTEMPT TO USE YOUR DrillRite Overhead Concrete Drill Press IF ANY PART IS MISSING, DAMAGED OR WORN. ORDER A REPLACEMENT PART IMMEDIATELY. Using a DrillRite Overhead Concrete Drill Press with missing, damaged or worn components can result in failure of the unit and possibly severe property damage and/or serious bodily injury. The DrillRite Overhead Concrete Drill Press is made of steel which conducts electricity. Keep the unit away from live exposed electrical wires. Failure to do so could result in electrocution. DO NOT use the DrillRite Overhead Concrete Drill Press in wet environments. Water combined with live electrical power can result in electrocution. Use the DrillRite Overhead Concrete Drill Press only with a rotary hammer drill that meets applicable codes and standards and is properly double insulated or properly equipped with grounded plug that meets applicable codes and standards. Failure to do so could result in electrocution. Only use extension power cords that are properly grounded, are in good condition with no breaks in the protective sheathing and no exposed wires, and are properly rated for the drill being used. Failure to do so could result in electrocution. The DrillRite Overhead Concrete Drill Press is designed ONLY as a positioner and handler of rotary hammer drills for overhead drilling into concrete or similar material and shall be used for no other purpose. Using the DrillRite Overhead Concrete Drill Press for purposes other than overhead drilling into concrete or similar material or using a drill that is not a rotary hammer drill designed for drilling into concrete can subject the unit to stresses and forces that it was not designed to carry. This can result in failure of the unit which may include a sudden and rapid lowering of the extended telescoping section possibly resulting in serious property damage and/or serious bodily injury. ALWAYS make sure that the Drill Cradle Lock Pin is snapped securely in place to lock the Drill Cradle on the telescoping section before drilling. Failure to do so could result in the Drill Cradle becoming unexpectedly detached from the telescoping section which could present a drop hazard possibly resulting in property damage and/or serious bodily injury. If the lock pin is missing or is not functioning properly DO NOT use the equipment. Order a replacement pin immediately. (See Page 4, Step 4) Unless you are using the optional Flex Base for your DrillRite Overhead Concrete Drill Press, Operate the DrillRite Overhead Concrete Drill Press only on hard, flat, level surfaces. In any setting the floor surface must be free of obstructions, debris, clutter, pits, holes or openings. Failure to follow this warning can result in tipping the equipment possibly resulting in serious property damage and/or serious bodily injury. DO NOT ROLL the DrillRite Overhead Concrete Drill Press while the telescoping section is extended. Always retract and lower the telescoping section until the equipment is in place beneath the area in which the hole will be drilled. Rolling the DrillRite Overhead Concrete Drill Press while the telescoping section is extended can result in tipping the equipment possibly resulting in serious property damage and/or serious bodily injury. ALWAYS WEAR PROPER PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT suited to overhead drilling into concrete when operating the DrillRite Overhead Concrete Drill Press. Failure to do so could result in serious bodily injury. Occasionally check all adjustment fasteners, straps, and set bolts on the drill cradle while in use as vibration may tend to loosen these components. Use caution to keep power cords clear of moving parts during operation. Questions? - Call Telpro Inc. Customer Service at or

6 CARE AND MAINTENANCE Occasionally oil the caster bearings, thumb screws and pull pins for smooth operation. Keep the chain lightly lubricated and do not expose it to moisture. Be careful not to over oil, as excess drip oil may cause grit to accumulate between moving parts. Avoid dropping debris into the telescoping sections and other openings in the DrillRite Overhead Concrete Drill Press. Debris can cause the chain to jam and possibly lead to damage to the equipment. Use only factory authorized replacement parts. Installation of other parts can compromise the safe design of the DrillRite Overhead Concrete Drill Press possibly resulting in serious property damage and/or serious bodily injury. Apply household paraffin to the surfaces of the telescoping sections, for smoother action. Store the DrillRite Overhead Concrete Drill Press in a dry place. Take reasonable care to avoid damaging the DrillRite Overhead Concrete Drill Press when transporting it. Do not hammer on any members or components of the DrillRite Overhead Concrete Drill Press.
